Stella Oduah
Senator for Anambra North, Princess Stella Oduah, has dumped the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) the ruling party in Anambra, and returned to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), according to a statement by her Media Office.
The statement issued on Friday morning quoted Senator Oduah as saying: “Politics has always been about ideology and delivering service to the people. For me, I believe leadership is all about solving problems.
“Political platforms must afford members unfettered opportunity to participate in the electoral process and to solve the problems of their community, constituency and state.
“I joined APGA because I thought it had sound ideological leanings native to Igboland. But my ideological expectations were a mirage. I discovered that internal democracy, which will guarantee justice, fairness and equity, was also not in practice in the party.
“After due consultations and with respect to my religious beliefs, I announce that PDP remains the vehicle through which I will keep fulfilling my mandate to the people of Anambra North.”
